Health and Demography: The Achilles’ Heel of Post-Socialist Development in Europe: 

Health and Demography: The Achilles’ Heel of Post-Socialist Development in Europe Nicholas Eberstadt Henry Wendt Chair in Political Economy American Enterprise Institute (AEI) eberstadt@aei.org “Advancing Economic Growth: Investing In Health” Chatham House, London June 22-23, 2005

Health and Demography Limit The Development Possibilities for Post-Socialist Europe Today:: 

Health and Demography Limit The Development Possibilities for Post-Socialist Europe Today: Inter-Linked Development-Impeding Characteristics Include: Pervasive Population Decline (Driven by Sharp Imbalance between Births and Deaths) Fertility Collapse (Portending “Youth Drought” and Rapid Ageing) Extreme and Rapid Population Ageing at Low Levels of GDP/Capita Serious and Enduring Health Problems, Concentrated in Economically Active Age Groups—Problems Resistant to Rapid Melioration

Post-Socialist Europe’s Demography: When “Abnormal” Becomes The Norm: 

Post-Socialist Europe’s Demography: When “Abnormal” Becomes The Norm Post-Socialist Europe’s Health and Demographic Challenges are without Historical Precedent They characterize the Whole Region (not just some States) These Dem/Health Problems are “Deeply Embedded”: i.e., Policy Interventions to address them may result in unusually Slow and Limited Gains
